Uploading a certificate
You can upload a certificate only for regular certificates that are in a csr_pending certificate status. You must upload a certificate to send a certificate signing request (CSR) for the regular certificate that you add in the switch. You cannot upload a certificate for the device-identity regular certificate and if the certificate status is installed.
The signed certificate that you upload must contain PEM data in the following chain format:
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----------END CERTIFICATE----------BEGIN CERTIFICATE----------END CERTIFICATE-----For example:
